Honoring Hall of Fame Careers: Rebecca Oesterle of IoPP

The Packaging & Processing Hall of Fame is inducting four new members into its ranks in 2022. Rebecca Oesterle joins the Hall of Fame with decades of packaging and project management experience and offers a guiding voice for future packagers.

Like a certain pink bunny, Rebecca Lane “Becchi” Oesterle, CPPL, just keeps going and going as an educational leader for packaging professionals, even in her retirement. Oesterle led the charge at Energizer on several package development and project management innovations and translated those same skills at Just Born Quality Confections. Currently, she brings over 40 years of packaging and project management experience as Chair of the Board of Directors at the Institute of Packaging Professionals (IoPP).

Born in Vermont and raised a “Navy brat,” Oesterle and her family followed her father as he was stationed all over the world, from Virginia and Rhode Island to Bermuda and Sicily. Despite the constant moving, she was mad when her father left the Navy after 21 years because, as the youngest child, she didn’t get to live as many places as her older brothers.
